Let's hope so !!!! I think management needs to a least talk to him to show the fans they are looking at all the things that they can do to win. It may not work out but they need to at least look at it.

He'd fill the stadium for generations to come, so it's not completely out of the realm of possibility.

You have to drive the price if anything...

Re: Peyton Manning’s camp has already heard from 12 teams

Call me crazy but i am not interested. Hes 36 years old coming off of 4 neck surgeries. How many more years can he play? Can he play in the Buffalo weather?

I know he's Peyon Manning future 1st ballot hall of famer, but for some reason i am not sold on him and the money he will get.

I really dont think the bills are interested either. If we were a playoff team maybe, but not with the team we have now.

Re: Peyton Manning’s camp has already heard from 12 teams

I don't want Peyton at this point in his career, and I actually believe in Fitz way more then few others here do..

However using reality as a barometer, there is no way Bills are even in the discussion based on the pure fact that we would have to absorb $7 million is dead cap space to release Fitz, and there is no way we are spending big money on Manning, and then destroying any chance of improving the parts of the team that need serious help now in the process

Re: Peyton Manning’s camp has already heard from 12 teams

Surprising to even myself, I have to say no. We need to build this team from the lines out, and use our cap wisely. I'd take Manning over nobody, but I'm hoping we actually make a FA splash this year

Well, Manning is going to have to prove he can actually throw the ball before any team shows him the money. It will be interesting to see when the workouts for teams begin.

He would fill the seats and even if he only had a few good years left I would take him. I would like to see a few good years after the last 12 or so. I am not sold on Fitz but maybe if he worked behind a guy like Manning a year or two it would help him.

10 of them are from the UFL and CFL

Peyton in the past is worth 9 wins. Todays Peyton may not be worth 1 win.

Well they list 7 teams in the article:

Broncos
Dolphins
Jets
Titans
Cardinals
Redskins
Seahawks

It's also been reported that the Chiefs are very interested too, so that's 8 confirmed.

For the remaining 4, my guesses would be from the following group:

Browns
Jaguars
Texans
Cowboys
Bucs
49ers
Vikings

I just don't see the Bills trying to get in the mix.

That may not matter. No matter where he signs, sponsors are going to be calling to spend money and ticket sales are going to be generated. That is why this is owner-driven, he will immediately increase the value of the franchise.

Manning seems pretty confident he will be playing again.

Of all the teams listed, only 4 or 5 are in play for Manning to sign. He is not going to sign with the Jets because of the Circus that team is, not the Redskins because Shannahan will want to run his offense not Peytons, not the Browns, Jags, Bucs or Vikings because none of those teams can win it all even with a healthy Peyton.

There really is no ideal team for Manning to sign with, each team that wants him has some problem he will have to deal with.
